    So there's this book, The Male Brain, by Louann Brizendine, that talks about cognitive development in males (there's a 'partner book' about the female brain as well). The main reason I'm bringing this up is because the last chapter talks about possible uniquenesses in the brains of LGBT individuals. I'm not going to spoil it for anyone who's interested, but I will say that I've done a little bit of PubMed research, and that chapter does draw information from published studies using things like fMRI; it definitely isn't pseudoscience. I'm not saying it's right (after all, the chapter kind of says LGBT males are only males in the physical sense, which is complete BS) but it's always helpful to look at additional perspectives.
